objetivo de minimizar el retraso total en un ambiente con preparaciones quedependen de la secuencia. Se comparan los resultados obtenidos mediante laaplicación de los procedimientos de exploración de entornos AED, ANED,Recocido Simulado, Algoritmos Genéticos, Búsqueda Tabú y GRASP alproblema planteado. Los resultados sugieren que la Búsqueda Tabú es unatécnica viable de solución que puede proporcionar buenas soluciones cuandose considera el objetivo retraso total con tiempos de preparación dependientesde la secuencia.

Programación de pedidos en una máquina de la vida real con tiempos de preparación dependientes de la secuencia

En este trabajo se evalúan algoritmos heurísticos de exploración de entornos(AED, ANED, SA, TS, GA y GRASP) en la programación de pedidos en unamáquina de la vida real, con el objetivo de minimizar la suma de retrasos . Elcaso estudiado se diferencia de los problemas convencionales en que lostiempos de preparación de las operaciones están separados de los tiempos deprocesamiento y son dependientes de la secuencia. Los resultadoscomputacionales revelan que la Búsqueda Tabú funciona mejor que los otrosalgoritmos aplicados.

Contra el psicoanálisis : confusiones, tópicos y críticas

A partir de la resonancia que ha tenido en los medios de comunicación el 150 aniversario del nacimiento de Freud, se hace un breve recuento de los principales tópicos y confusiones que se difunden en torno al psicoanálisis, y se presenta una breve reflexión acerca de las dos principales críticas de que es objeto, las referidas a la falta de validez de su conocimiento y a la falta de eficacia de sus tratamientos.

El món romà a Alcanar i al Montsià. Un exemple de poblament rural a l’antic ager dertosanus

L’estudi dels materials ceràmics trobats als jaciments romans del Cementeri (Alcanar) i la Torreta (Ulldecona) ens permet emmarcar-ho en l’àmbit comarcal i efectuar una aproximació al desenvolupament de la romanització a la comarca del Montsià i a les terres veïnes del Baix Maestrat.

Repercusiones de la anorexia y la bulimia en la salud oral, prevención y tratamiento

El presente artículo trata de aportar una puesta al día de los problemas que presentan los pacientes afectados de anorexia y de bulimia nerviosa. Se expone la información que el odontólogo debe tener en cuenta respecto al conocimiento de la enfermedad, sus manifestaciones orales, los criterios diagnósticos y los enfoques preventivos y terapéuticos necesarios.

Consumption of macrophytes by invertebrates in Tancada lagoon (NE Spain)

Gammarus aequicauda and Sphaeroma hookeri are the most abundant macroinvertebrates on Ruppia cirrhosa (1275 and 1290 individuals.m-2) and Potamogeton pectinatus (140 and 680 individuals. m-2) in Tancada lagoon, a Mediterranean coastal lagoon in the Ebro Delta (NE Spain). Consumption and assimilation efficiencies were calculated from bell jar experiments. Gammarus grazing effects are higher than Sphaeroma on both Ruppia cirrhosa and Potamogeton pectinatus. Green Ruppia leaves lost 0.3 mg per mg Gammarus per day, while Potamogeton leaves lost 0.2 mg per mg Gammarus per day. Decomposing Ruppia leaves lost 0.35-0.54 mg per mg Gammarus per day. Losses of weight by both Ruppia and Potamogeton due to Sphaeroma feeding were less than half those by Gammarus. Assimilation efficiencies are higher for Gammarus (44-78% feeding on Ruppia 2% feeding on Potamogeton) than for Sphaeroma (26-48%) feeding on Ruppia). These assimilation efficiencies were higher than those reported by other authors working at higher latitudes perhaps because of the higher temperature under which the experiments were carried out.

Decomposition of Ruppia cirrhosa (Petagna) Grande in the sediment of a coastal lagoon

The decomposition process of Ruppia cirrhosa was studied in a Mediterranean coastal lagoon in the Delta of the River Ebro (NE Spain). Leaves and shoots of Ruppia were enclosed in 1 mm-mesh and 100 pm-mesh litter bags to ascertain the effect of detritivores, macroinvertebrates, and bacteria and fungi, respectively. Changes in biomass and carbon, and, nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in the detritus were studied at the sediment-water interface and in the sediment. Significant differences in biomass decay were observed between the two bag types. Significant differences in decomposition were observed between the two experimental conditions studied using 100 pm-mesh bags. These differences were not significant when using the 1 mm-mesh bags. The carbon content in the detritus remained constant during the decomposition process. The percentage of nitrogen increased progressively from an initial 2.4 % to 3 %. The percentage of phosphorus decreased rapidly during the first two days of decomposition from an initial 0.26 % to 0.17 %. This loss is greater in the sediment than in the water column or at the sediment-water interface. From these results we deduce that the activity of microorganisms seems to be more important in the sediment than in the water-sediment interface, and that grazing by macroinvertebrates has less importance in the sediment than in the water column.

Effect of nitrogen and phosphorus supply on growth, chlorophyll content and tissue composition of the macroalga Chaetomorpha linum (O.F. Mull), Kutz, in a Mediterranean Coastal Lagoon

The effect of dissolved nutrients on growth, nutrient content and uptake rates of Chaetomorpha linum in a Mediterranean coastal lagoon (Tancada, Ebro delta, NE Spain) was studied in laboratory experiments. Water was enriched with distinct forms of nitrogen, such as nitrate or ammonium and phosphorus. Enrichment with N, P or with both nutrients resulted in a significant increase in the tissue content of these nutrients. N-enrichment was followed by an increase in chlorophyll content after 4 days of treatment, although the difference was only significant when nitrate was added without P. P-enrichment had no significant effect on chlorophyll content. In all the treatments an increase in biomass was obseved after 10 days. This increase was higher in the N+P treatments. In all the treatments the uptake rate was significantly higher when nutrients were added than in control jars. The uptake rate of N, as ammonium, and P were significantly higher when they were added alone while that of N as nitrate was higher in the N+P treatment. In the P-enriched cultures, the final P-content of macroalgal tissues was ten-fold that of the initial tissue concentrations, thereby indicating luxury P-uptake. Moreover, at the end of the incubation the N:P ratio increased to 80, showing that P rather than N was the limiting factor for C. linum in the Tancada lagoon. The relatively high availability of N is related to the N inputs from rice fields that surround the lagoon and to P binding in sediments.
